    Another spoke problem thread

    About 800kms on bike (450 miles or so), and I lose a spoke. It was hanging off and banging into the swingarm just like I've read many others have. I was out of town on my first trip with the bike. Now that I'm home, I have 1400kms on the bike (about 900miles) and Yamaha says I'm responsible...

    Rubber inserts in footpegs

    One of mine fell out. Does anyone run the bike with these removed? I'm wondering if I should try and find a replacement rubber, take the other one out or maybe buy an aftermarket set with a wider footprint. I'd rather not spend the money to be honest. I never noticed it missing until I...

    New black Yamaha side cases/panniers

    How much are these things worth and is there a market for them? I'd really like bigger cases. These ones have zero miles and extra keys cut for them. Also a spare lock. I may end up running them this year unless somebody want them and we can make a deal. These come off a 2015 super Tenere es

    I've seen posts with 6" and 7" but this light bar is just under 10" from outside bracket to outside of bracket. I will post a link and see if it works: http://www.amazon.ca/Mctuning-12pcsx3w-Lumens-warranty-Harness/dp/B00V04UNAC/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top?ie=UTF8#productDetails I haven't taken...

    made an offer on a tenere es

    So the offer was rejected but the dealer will revisit it tomorrow. Sales guy said I could get the standard shift Africa Twin for less. I'm talking Tenere 2015 vs Twin 2016. I'm planning to do long road trips with some mild dirt in between. Not the other way around. I figure the resale on...

    suspension for heavier guy

    I'm about to pick up a leftover es or standard. My dealer has one of each leftover. Most likely I will do suspension work to either bike. The es would be nice and everybody seems to love theirs. However, I will need to at least re vale the forks and replace the spring in the shock. I saw a...
